LO8-4 Explain how job experiences can be used for developing skills.∙ Job experiences contribute to development through a combination of relationships, problems, demands, tasks, and other features of an employee’s jobs. ∙ The assumption is that development is most likely to occur when the employee’s skills and experiences do not entirely match the skills required for the employee’s current job, so employees must stretch to meet the demands of the new assignment.∙ The impact varies according to whether the employee views the experience as a positive or negative source of stress.∙ Job experiences that support employee development may include job enlargement, job rotations, transfers, promotions, downward moves, and temporary assignments with other organizations.LO8-5 Summarize principles of successful mentoring programs.∙ A mentor is an experienced, productive senior employee who helps develop a less-experienced employee.∙ Although most mentoring relationships develop informally, organizations can link mentoring to development goals by establishing a formal mentoring program. A formal program provides a basis for ensuring that all eligible employees are included.∙ Mentoring programs tend to be most successful when they are voluntary and participants understand the details of the program.∙ The organization should reward managers for employee development, carefully select mentors based on interpersonal and technical skills, train them for the role, and evaluate whether the program has met its objectives.
